BUTTERMILK RUSKS


INGREDIENTS
1.5 Kg Self Raising Flour
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
3 Eggs
500g Butter
500ml Buttermilk
3 Tbsp Lemon Juice

Cream eggs and sugar

Mix in the buttermilk and lemon juice

Melt the butter and mix in with the buttermilk mixture

Sift the dry ingredients into the buttermilk mixture then mix in with your hands to form a stiff dough

Grease a baking dish (I found loaf tins worked well)

Make medium size balls with the dough
(a little bigger than golf ball size)
Arrange them very close together

Bake at 180 degrees for 1 hour

Cut or break the balls into rusk size pieces

Arrange them loosely on a baking tray

Let them dry out in a oven of 50 degrees overnight

Turn them around after a few hours
